What kind of weight are you planning on pulling with the truck? I've always been curious how well a 67-72 SWB would tow.
Thats my baby boy Jackson Tanner "JT" I am not really looking to pull anything since I have my other trucks for that but I am sure it will pull anything I put back there within reason. like my enclosed trailer or my car trailer.

I remember when i went from a one wheel peel to a posi..... night and day difference.

Keep up the awesome work.
Thank you I appreciate the nice comments and the limited slip made a huge difference.....

I thought you were selling it but glad your not. Still looks killer man.
Thanks I did post it to test the water but people do not have respect for money so I pulled it off and decided that it will stay in the family forever..

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Nice Al, you have one of my favorite trucks here. The truck is gonna look so different with the rallies, from Hot Rod to stocker in a matter of minutes. Will be a good change here and there between the two of them. What size tires are you plan on running front to back? make or brake question here Al. LOL.

James, I am trying to figure out what sizes do I want to use. I am so busy in the shop that I dont know when I will be able to get this done but the important part is that I have the wheels already

Heath the next thing is going to be the big brake kit as soon as we get less busy in the shop these recalls are taking all our time which is cool by me as we are making $$$$ hand over fist I am looking out for a 68SWB just to have one of each I mean a 60's and a 70's style just people have no respect for money the kind of money they ask for some of these buckets but I know that sooner or later I will come accross one. I am also thinking of a 69 camaro and build it pro-touring my brother in law is almost done with his and the fact that it has a back seat seems more apealing to me as my wife and kids like to cruise in the old buckets. I am also trying to sell one of my Harleys so that I can fund the next project.....

Anyone looking for a Harley Davidson StreetGlide?

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

I spent part of the day cleaning the engine bay, sometimes I feel to just take all the billet parts off and powder coat them with some kind of color. Polishing really bites....
